In the fall of the year nineteen hundred and twenty-two, Euclid High School opened
its doors to the nucleus of the present graduating class. As freshmen, these boys and
girls trod the halls arrogantly, confident in their cleverness. Then their pride received a
blow. Due to confusion in schedules, they spent half a period in the laboratory, waiting
for a teacher. When the instructor finally arrived, he conducted them to study hall, where
they were greeted with derisive cries of "green".
Then came the long dreaded initiation. One day, the quiet was shattered by fiendish
war cries, and the sophs bore down upon the fully terrified freshmen. The freshmen
rallied their forces and met the sophs blow for blow. When the dust of the conflict finally
vanished, the freshmen were seen marching victoriously away, bearing with them many
trophies of the battle; while the sophomores feebly arose, murmuring, "Whose initiation
was this anyway?"
The year went by rapidly and, before they could realize it, the green freshies had
become clever sophomores. Practically all of the class belonged to the glee clubs, and most
of them were progressing famously in athletics. Miss Burgess was the class sponsor
and was piloting them safely through all their trials.
Then came the busy, brilliant junior year, bringing with it the class play "Come
Out of the Kitchen" and the two parties, all of which were successful. Two juniors were
admitted to the Honor Society, and several were given leading parts in the operetta.
Too quickly, it seemed, they became seniors. Although glorying in their exalted
position, they sighed faintly as they realized that soon they must leave the high school
with all its joys and trials. The other classes would miss them, too, for the girls'
basketball team was, except for one player, made up of seniors. Three seniors were on
the boys' team and one was its captain. Two seniors had charge of the assembly pro-
grams and one was leader of the girls' glee club. All in all, they had undeniably made
a place for themselves in the life of Euclid High School.
As their last year drew to a close, many seniors thought regretfully of the hours
wasted and the studies neglected, half wishing they could begin all over again. At the
same time they braced their shoulders, facing the world with a grin and the determination
to do their best for the honor of the class of '26.

PLEASANT MEMORIES
A white-haired old gentleman dozed by the fire
And puffed wreaths of smoke from his pipe.
As his eyes grew dim, old thoughts came back,
Of the times ere his own youth was ripe.
"Yes, those were the days when we studied,
And often we didn't half try;
No wonder our teachers complained,
Back there in old Euclid High.
How much fun we thought we were having,
When we played foolish pranks on the sly.
But the studies and parties and games,
Kept us going at old Euclid High.
Yes, I'd give some years from my life
To stand at an old game and cry,
When the fellow had just made a touchdown,
'Nine rahs, for old Euclid High!'"
SENIOR SKETCHES I.
That she's athletic — studious, too —
We have no doubts.
She's little, peppy, full of cheer;
Her nickname's — »•
SENIOR SKETCHES II.
In love she's fickle, very fickle,
And yet she does have lover's luck.
Her nature is so very prim
That we all call her —
SENIOR SKETCHES III.
"Hello, old dear," we hear her say,
This clever girl, just made for play;
Curly hair and manner snappy,
Her friends and classmates call her
SENIOR SKETCHES IV.
She's forward, but she isn't bold,
For southern climes she's professed a need;
Her eyes are blue, her hair is gold,
Because she's slow, we call her
SENIOR SKETCHES V.
He's cute. He's fat.
He wears no hat.
He studies the Roman forum.
He flirts. He smiles.
Falls for no wiles.
His christian name is
SENIOR SKETCHES VI.
Want something done? Done right?
Is your load too big to carry?
If you need some help, given with a smile.
Ask
SENIOR SKETCHES VII.
He heads his class,
Steps on the gas,
Thinks some of the girls are catty;
Though his smiles are few,
They're treasured too; „»
Let's give three cheers for—

BLUE SEA
Alberta Lyons '26
When we first came to Blue-Sea, I was a little tyke, unusually impressionable after
a spell of diphtheria, from which, they say, it takes a good year's time to recover. We
settled in the midst of prominent Bohemians with such outrageous names as Sappho,
Cappuch, Kryzanowski, and Schlenk. They all raised pickles. It seems to me that the
sight of a pickle will always bring back the memory of long, low fields of that hardy,
unlovely vegetable. The land, very mucky and dry, was fit only for the producing of
pickles.
Just above the meadow, east of our great rambling house, lay the immense forest.
There I used to wander by the hour, eating huckleberries, the largest I have ever seen.
Father's busiest season came at that time, and because I was too weak to pick the
"cukes", as the darkies called them, I often sat in the swing playing the guitar for them.
After a time I grew to be quite clever at twanging the strings and, according to the boys,
we used to have some great old-fashioned melodies. The biggest of the colored men had
an unusually sweet tenor voice. We never were tired of hearing him sing "Swing Low,
Sweet Chariot." Now that I look back on those days, I realize how ludicrous it must
have been for the chance-passer-by to see me — an ugly, tow-headed youngster — strumming
on that old guitar, while Ulysses blended his quick, high notes with Brown's rough, deep
ones.
And one day, we had an addition to the pickle-farm in the shape of a tall, lanky
darky named Jenkins. He was the most refined negro we had, very light in color. Mother
always said there was something peculiar about his yellow-brown eyes — a queer in-
scrutable look in them. He constantly looked behind him. and was always ready to run
at the slightest alarm.
Great was our joy when we found that Jenkins had a voice better than the average.
A clear, melodious tone that used to melt into "Down in Honolulu, where the drifting
waters play, In Honolulu." We didn't care anything about Jenkins' eyes, but Mother always
worried about him.
Every evening after supper we would gather on the porch, and make the darkies
sing for us. Sometimes those days were insufferably hot; the dry, mucky earth fairly
cracked with the intense heat. But oh — the evening! Cool sweet breezes would come
wafting in like tall white ships from blue, blue waters.
On the tenth of August about midnight, I lay in my little white bed, wondering how
anyone could sleep on a night like that. Even the sky looked warm and sultry, while the
moon sought refuge behind a cloud. I knew it would rain before morning. Slipping into my
bathrobe, I crept softly down the stairs out into the open. A slight breeze had risen, and
its gentle touch cooled my head wonderfully. It was then that I saw the Shadow, out by
the cooling house. A long grotesque figure, flopping aimlessly in the breeze.
Something told me who it was, but it seemed an hour before I could move toward
it. Nearer and nearer I stole, my hands trembling violently, my whole body overcome
with a feeling of nausea. I felt as if some weight were on my head, wearing my very
soul down.
There, staring at me, his black face swelled to twice its normal size, his lips purple
and thick, hung the dead body of Jenkins, swinging lightly in the wind — like a rag doll.
Dead; dead as a rock, as a stone — yet seeming so fearfully alive!
Creeping back — if only I could overcome that dreadful feeling of nausea, that weight
on my soul, the crushing shadows over me — creeping until that merciful darkness enveloped
me, and I was conscious only of a great, glad splash of water on my cheek. Only the
rain, coming in swift, clean torrents, could clear my mind of that vision. In my ignorant
fancy I imagined the rain washing away the sight of that.
As the days went by, I became stronger, normal again. The crushing experience
had left me spent, weary; and it seemed to me, old. Yet the time came when I could
run again, laugh again.
It is all like an unpleasant dream, now. But I have never played a guitar since
that night nor even heard one, without hearing, also, a clear melodious voice softly
singing, "Underneath Hawaiian Skies, In Honolulu."

THE BUZZER 1926
THE STRUGGLE ON THE TUNDRA
Robert Smith '26
Three men toiled through the powdery snow of a windswept tundra, a thousand
miles north of Fort Dupre. The men in the rear stumbled along, falling often.
Across their eyes lay a blood red film, which to men of the snow-country spells
snow blindness. Encircling the waist of the leader was a rope to which the others
clung. The faces of all three were grotesque in the black masks which their frozen
breath had formed. No sound except the labored breathing of the men disturbed
the intense quiet of the arctic night. Occasionally the sharp crack of a tree, split
asunder by the terrific cold, broke the silence from the dark line of trees that marked
the edge of the tundra.
Trapping had been good that fall and the men had lingered at their lines until
imminent failure of their provisions had forced them to pack and leave for the
little post two hundred miles south. Their departure had been delayed too long,
for about noon of the second day the mercury began to fall rapidly. By evening
they were overtaken by a raging blizzard. The storm had lasted three days, during
which time traveling was impossible. In their more or less snug shelter of a
clump of scrub pine the men had watched with growing concern the rapid diminish-
ing of their foodstuff.
Toward the evening of the third day the storm had abated, accompanied by a
further drop in temperature. The next morning had dawned clear and intensely
cold. Then had followed a struggle across the tundra toward the line of timber
just visible across the dazzling open.
When night came, they were almost within the shelter of the timber. But
the damage had been done. Two of the number were stone blind from the glare
that had beaten itself on their unprotected eyes all day. As the three trappers sat
huddled around the fire in the edge of the timber, two stared sightlessly into
the leaping flames while the face of the third showed signs of an intense inward
struggle. He looked from his comrades to the meager stack of supplies. Little
more than half the distance to the post had been covered, the provisions were
almost gone, his comrades were helpless. Without them he could easily reach the
post and home. Where did his duty lie? With his family or his helpless friends?
Then he thought of Marie, her raven hair, her rosy cheeks. He remembered
how she had looked when he had last seen her, standing in the doorway of the
cabin holding little Pierre up so he could see daddy before a bend in the trail hid
him from view.
A determined look settled on the trapper's face. Rising quietly, he moved
rapidly over to the supplies and began to pack them into a small bundle. Then
an ugly thought entered his mind. Would Marie welcome him under the circum-
stances? He remembered how she had admired his fair play in rough and ready
bouts with fellow trappers. Slowly, with bowed head, he resumed his seat.
Three days later the factor at the post saw three gaunt, starved-looking men
stumble down the trail. In the eyes of two of the men he saw the ravages of snow-
blindness. In the eyes of the third he discerned a light that he was at a loss
to understand.

The Girls' Glee Club has entertained at various assembly periods before the
school. One of its first appearances was just before the holidays, when Christmas
carols were sung. The crowning event of the year was the presentation of the
Japanese operetta, "The Mikado", by the combined boys' and girls' glee clubs.

The Boys' Glee Club has had a good year under the supervision of Mr. King,
the new director. Modesty on the part of the members has limited the number
of public appearances of the group, a phase of school life in which the boys are
more than glad to let the girls outshine them. But the work done by the boys in
the "Mikado" was decidedly to their credit. Graduation will remove several good
voices from the club, so recruits are wanted for next fall.

The orchestra is one of Euclid's institutions. It takes part in every operetta
or play, and also in many Assembly programs. A certain finish which nothing else
can give is added to the entertainment by the orchestra.

THE BUZZER
The termination of this school year brings to a successful close the fourth year
of the Euclid School paper, "The Buzzer." Each year has seen steady progress
toward the accomplishment of the present day paper, and each of the successive
editorial staffs under the supervision of Miss Leamon, along with the help and
interest of the student body, has added to the credit of the paper.
"The Buzzer" is all that its name implies. It fairly buzzes with news, editorials,
literary writings, athletics and humor. It possesses all the journalistic qualities
of a good newspaper.

Athletics play a large part in the life of Euclid High School. The fact that all
the major sports are encouraged and are managed without a financial loss is a
matter of particular pride. Much credit is due to the Athletic Association, which is
responsible for the business end of the various sports, as well as the morale of
student support.

THE SEASON OF 1925
Under the vigorous coaching of A. W. Rader and the inspirational leadership of
Captain Saefkow, the football team of 1925 gave Euclid High School students and patrons
a full season of real sport.
Euclid's line of defense was generally conceded to be one of the strongest in the
Greater Cleveland Conference. Definite evidence of this is shown by the fact that the
opposing team seldom scored a touchdown. In offense, Euclid showed up equally well.
Le Breton, heavy line-plunger, Bernie Sadosky, the fleetfoot, and John Korencic, the
sure and steady, deserve much credit for the size of Euclid scores.
The season started with a landslide victory in a non-conference game with Mayfield.
The first conference game, with Shaker Heights, was a big disappointment, but that defeat
was a stimulus for the splendid work done during the rest of the schedule. The boys
were not defeated again until the very end of the season, when Euclid lost the Greater
Cleveland championship to Rocky River.
John Korencic, Euclid's quarterback, played in every game and was high point scorer,
having a total of 61 points.
Three players made the mythical eleven: Korencic, all-scholastic quarterback; Le
Breton, fullback; and Phypers, tackle. Sadosky received honorable mention.
Five letter-men will be lost to the team this year, but good football material is waiting
to be developed. John Korencic is captain-elect for 1926.

THE SECOND TEAM
The second team, made up entirely of freshman boys, was under the guidance of Mr.
Keay, assistant football coach. In addition to the regular practice games, the boys played
three games of their own. The first was lost to Prospect Junior High 6-0; the second game
was a close victory over Superior, 13-12; the third game, with Roselle, was won with a
large score to Euclid's credit, 24-6.
Louis Petti was the freshman captain.

All-around athletes are the rule rather than the exception at Euclid Central, as is
shown by the fact that the entire basketball team had made enviable reputations for
themselves during the football season. Scarcely had the Rocky River mud dried on the
football suits, before the boys donned basketball outfits and plunged headlong into a
successful cage season.
The boys played steadily and consistently this year. They won ten out of thirteen
games, maintained second place in the Greater Cleveland Conference, and acquitted them-
selves splendidly in the Berea tournament, staying in through the third round, when they
were eliminated by their old rivals, Rocky River.
John Korencic was given a position as rear guard on the Greater Cleveland Con-
ference mythical team, while Paul Kurtz was given honorable mention as center.
Only two regulars, Hattendorf and Kurtz, will be lost by graduation, so Euclid fans
can look forward to a successful 1927 season under the leadership of John Korencic,
captain-elect.

Good team work was the outstanding feature of the work of the girls' team during
the 1925-1926 season. In game after game, the girls showed the skill that comes from
hard practice and good coaching. Five years of playing together has its results, too; for.
outside of the side-center, all the regular team members had been out for basketball since
the eighth grade.
Especial credit should be given Gertrude Fouts, better known as 'Poutsie", who as
captain was always cheerful, tactful, and efficient; and who as guard, was one of the
snappiest, quickest players seen in many a day. Grace Chapman acted as manager of the
team, and Miss Hardin as chaperone.
Alberta Laufer, the steady side-center of this year's team, steps into the captain's
shoes next year.

TRACK — 1925
The first annual Greater Cleveland Conference track meet was held at Shaker
Heights field in May, 1925. All G. C. C. teams had representatives present.
It being Euclid's first attempt at track, there were not many out. Some honor
was earned, however, by Bernard Sadosky, who took second place in the pole vault,
clearing the bar at ten feet, two inches. Virgil Camm, while not winning any honors,
did fine work in the broad jump and 220-dash. Sadosky and Camm are promising
material for the 1926 meets.
The freshman relay team, which was composed of Henry Powers, Bernard
Sadosky, Rocco Vinciquerra and Maurice Berg, came out third. Many more fellows
are expected out this spring.

Although practices must of necessity be an uncertain quantity, Euclid Central
never has much difficulty in finding enough men for a baseball team. The keen
rivalry that accompanies other athletic sports of the year is changed somewhat in
baseball games, and. a spirit of real "playing for the fun of it" develops.
The boys held their own during the 1925 season, except, perhaps, in the
University school game. Only five games were played.
New equipment and suits have been ordered for the 1926 season. Paul Kurtz
is captain, and a number of new men are reasonably sure of positions on the line-up.

THE BUZZER 1926
GIRL'S BASKET BALL RULES
(for the term of 1926-27)
1. Present a good appearance. Don't let your nose get shiny. If you carry a com-
pact with you onto the floor you can powder your nose if you realize it needs it. Don't
wait until the half or quarter — do it immediately upon perceiving this fact.
2. Do not jump around too much — it musses your hair.
3. Be graceful. If a play requires an ungraceful pose, don't make it.
4. Play up to your audience. Smile and wave your hands to them when they cheer.
5. Be considerate of your opponents. If they want the ball badly — don't be self-
ish — let them have it.
6. Always let your opponent know what you intend to do next.
7. Never give signals that are not understood by the opposing team. It isn't polite.
8. Don't run. It isn't ladylike.
9. Keep your arms at your sides as much as possible. Retain your poise in all
situations. , , » '
10. Show that you have a book of etiquette at home.

ALL IN A STUDY HALL
The student who assumes a studious facial expression for his own individual purpose.
The student who is constantly beautifying herself by means of the indispensable com-
pact and comb.
The student who believes in preparedness, his lesson book open and in readiness for
any immediate emergency.
The student who casts coquettish glances at her masculine neighbor.
The student who passes notes all period — carefully, quietly, but with a certain air of
triumph at deceiving the teacher.
The student who takes delight in creating a disturbance. Books and pencils fall
innumerable times — accidentally of course.
The student, who really is trying to concentrate. Forgetful of time and place, and
regardless of classmates, he diligently masters a difficult lesson.

£ET us demonstrate to you
this high quality car. See
the lasting Duco finish
and the rich upholstering.
Then a ride in one at our ex-
pense will be a revelation of
its smooth performance and
comfort. Others have exper-
ienced this enjoyable surprise
that has never before been
possible in a low priced car.
That is what accounts for its
rapidly gaining popularity.
"Chevrolet" is the world's
greatest Closed Car value.
